  • Patent number: 11099826
    Abstract: Methods and systems for performing application deployments in a computing environment are presented herein. One or more components of the computing environment may perform a canary deployment of an updated version of an application. As the canary deployment is performed, one or more determinations as to whether to continue, stop, or complete the canary deployment may be performed. These determinations may be based on one or more metrics determined by an application delivery controller of the computing environment. The application delivery controller may be configured to divert or forward traffic to application resources that execute the updated version. Additionally, the canary deployment may be performed in an automated fashion.

  • Patent number: 11095562
    Abstract: Described embodiments provide for low-latency classification of flows, via an intelligent learning-based system. In one implementation, a packet processor may utilize destination internet protocol (IP) addresses and domains identified in first packets of flows to determine if a similar flow has been previously received, directed to the same address and domain, or apply default routing and policy rules if not. The packet processor may subsequently fully classify the flow; generate a record in an association database for the combination of application, address, and domain, and a starting confidence level; and apply proper routing and policy rules. A subsequent flow for the same application and destination IP address may then be classified as the same as the prior flow, with corresponding routing and policy rules applied. The packet processor may continue to fully classify the flow, and upon full classification, the database entry may be updated and the confidence level adjusted.

  • Patent number: 11095608
    Abstract: Described embodiments provide systems and methods for cross protocol association using internet addresses for metadata association. An association between IPv4 addresses and IPv6 addresses can determined and used to bridge metadata from collection context in a first protocol into usage for a second protocol. A server can monitor a plurality of handshake exchanges to generate the association between IPv4 addresses and IPv6 addresses for a device or group of devices. The handshake exchange can include an IPv4 address, an IPv6 address, or both an IPv4 address and an IPv6 address for a respective device. The handshake exchanges can include a unique identifier corresponding to the respective device. The server can use the association to generate a mapping linking a range of IPv4 addresses to a range of IPv6 addresses corresponding to the same device. The mapping can be used to associate metadata to devices within the same ranges.

  • Patent number: 11095567
    Abstract: The present disclosure describes a system and method to reduce the overall time taken to complete distributed process workflows. Each workflow can include multiple actions that are completed by or at different client devices. The actions of a workflow can be dependent on prior actions in the workflow. For example, a second client device may not be able to complete a second action until a first client device completes a first action in the workflow. The system can predict time periods and the geolocations where client devices are most likely to complete an assigned action. Using the selected time periods and geolocations, the system can transmit notifications to the client devices when the action is most likely to be completed.

  • Patent number: 11089113
    Abstract: Described embodiments provide systems and methods for pushing session information to a newly joined node in a cluster of nodes. In the cluster, each node may maintain a session table of existing sessions. One or more nodes may detect a new node has joined the cluster. Each node, responsive to the detection, may apply a hash function on a tuple of each session of the existing sessions in the session table of the node to determine whether one or more existing sessions are identified to be owned by the new node as a result of the hash function. Each node, responsive to identifying that one or more sessions are to be owned by the new node, may push corresponding session information to the new node. The new node may become configured to receive a packet corresponding to the one or more sessions and to process the packet.

  • Patent number: 11089091
    Abstract: Described embodiments provide systems and methods for zone selection for distributed services. A device records latency data measured for interactions between each of a plurality of clients and a service hosted by servers in two or more zones. The device directs network communications from each of the plurality of clients to respective servers hosting the service based on zones assigned to each of the plurality of clients. The device assigns clients to zones based on the recorded latency data. For example, the device identifies a grouping for a client, determines whether the recorded latency data indicates that latency for clients in the grouping is increasing faster than a threshold rate, and selects, responsive to the determination, a zone indicated by a selected set of recorded latency data as lowest in latency.

  • Publication number: 20210243196
    Abstract: Embodiments described include systems and methods for securely managing browser plugins via embedded browser. The solution enables a client application or embedded browser to dynamically load the browser components into the embedded browser based on a risk or security profile and one or more policies. The policies can be centrally managed to enable only allowed browser components to be loaded within the embedded browser for a given risk profile. Based on the risk profile, a session established by the embedded browser can be transferred from the client application to a hosted browser at a secure sever. When the session is transferred to the hosted browser, the present system can also redirect the browser component configurations to the hosted browser such that the same browser components are enabled, disabled, or modified at the hosted browser.
